I believe the long form survey you are talking about is the acs survey If you receive it you are legally required to respond. https://www.census.gov/programs-

  It used to be a "long form" every ten years, now it's the ACS every year.[1] I didn't realize until now that they'd continued the long form in another, um, form. Technically you're required to respond, with a fine of $100 per question if you don't (with 50 questions). However, in the past half century the government has not prosecuted or fined anyone for failing to respond.[2] [1] https://www.prb.org/resources/continuity-and-change-in-the-u-s-decennial-census/ https://www.prb.org/resources/continuity-and-change-in-the-u...
